Sofa Zed, I created actually some face build-in set, if they can say so. So as you see, this is the first one and I drew for you like different options, different eyes and leaps. And there's a second set is. So you might see I also created freckles, eyebrows, noses, different shapes over phases. I even created an ALF for you. You might seize it. And the last option is a shape of a face. Also. Because I want actually guys, you to use your imagination all probably you want to create different characters in different styles. So I give you options for doing said and I will add all sauce set. Phase builders does a description of our class so you can use it in anyway. And let's get started infrastructure. We need to create a texture paper and phys ed and to be a new layer. And we go here, press add, insert the file. Freight, moves our paper to the corners and OK to set, replicates it two times. And moreover to Linear Burn and Color Burn. And now let's replicate it as well two times and merge together two layers and Color Burn, reduplicated and merge two layers together. And after that, I went to lower self paucity of our canvas. And now I want to group set and I can write something like textured paper. And we are ready. They have all variations. I serrations knows is said about texture paper BAD when your start painting, they need to be below our texture paper. And for that we created a couple of new layers. And guys, also I wanted to tell you is it actually will create portrayed as its first theme and the second part of alkalis. Like I wanted to create not a average background. So I wanted to feel our backgrounds, space visa flowers. So let's start. 3. Portrait 1: building sketch : And first of all, I'm gonna go and grab face it a like and a guy is assist PNG files being just said. So as you might see, is a paper that said that I added to the description of the class is also VCE transparent background. So you can just simply copy set and have to pay send. You can use this face as his sketches without tracing them. Once again, it can easier job. This face is pretty average one. And what you're gonna do, I will just emphasize Aswan and after three down and copy and paste. So now we have our phase and I can increase the size of the head. And now let's keep adding ice. I want to add, and I want to draw, say some ice. And as you might see it because I like Japanese art and I also edit for your some coupling for examples is true. This is Chinese-style Chinese Eyes is a Japanese iss ands is like an average, pretty popular. Different ice styles I variations at it's, it might be pretty interesting. But once again, I'm gonna use this one. And I'm gonna go and grab saw sleeps. He likes him. Copy and paste. Okay. Turn it off. Turn off this builder said. And let's move to the last one. Wherever you have eyebrows and freckles, I like freckles, so I want to use them as well. I will choose that one semitone line. Also the most average copy-and-paste. Turning it off, returned to our layer, main layer. And now lets choose eyebrows. Copy and Pete, Great. Now let's turn off our builder said, we have our eyebrows. Now this is our face. And let's start painting. Let's start building. So today I try to create some funny class for you and I hope you will enjoy this at one. And let's increase the size of our eyebrows, like sad. So as you might see, I didn't add too much eyelashes because probably idea NO, whom you want to create is a boy or girl. So I decided to give you some freedom in choosing us. And now leaps quantum of our face slightly to the left. And now we need to create a new layer and start painting. And guys, if you're happy with what you have for now, let's just merged it together and have one solid layer is perfectly fine. And now to create a new layer, new layer, we need to give edit some details, something that you want to add to your paint. And so for me, I wanted to add nag and hair and I wanted to finish painting eyes and nafta. We'll move to maintain parts where we'll add some water color cop, watercolor colors. What color paints? So let's do that here. And after that you just go press liquefy after zed and, and to smooth slightly so-called. But now I want to keep it like that. And after that I want to merge together our layers. So now we have our girl. And next step is the colors that I have my brother said I will share with you guys as it is called pool marshmallow watercolour brush. And we can start coloring Oligo. 4. Portrait 1: adding colors: So the owner new layer a, grab our Bu marshmallow watercolour brush and guys, I created for your color palette. Because some of you, you're asking me to those debts are color palettes that to B ends up colors that we are going to use today. And it's called portrait. And I will also add it to the description of our class. So now let's go and grab color. And I think we need to start from pre to light one. And I'm gonna use this 1 first. So you need to start from y, test colours to darkest one. And you can leave some blank spaces, the areas where you will have just white color. And also how white-collar for you here. And we need to use white color with the need to leaves us white spaces. And I actually think that I'm going to, yeah, I'm slightly out. Girl. Met Kip paintings at some shades. And guys. I'll show it to options, how to do that? Yes, the simple wanting, more complicated. So we'll start from a complicated one. Nowadays. Of course, kitsch layer. She's very lovely. Darker color, shade in a year. Correct. Paint. All my painting just on one layer. I don't want to create lots of players and up to be messed in all of it. And when you draw a real which color, you had just one paper. And you don't have many options. Of course, like digital apps can help you to easier job and can save time. But I want to keep it as simple as possible and as close to the real watercolor painting as possible. Okay, great. And my count here, you have got a pet. I'll start from the largest one is usual. And here you can lift your finger from the paper. It's fine. Our lab is colored blazer bill blends them, has totally normal. If you just keep adding differentiates or brown color. Now blending told speaking about hair. So guys here, there is an options what colors you can add to your collaborations. But I'm gonna show you soon. Second options that I told you about. That is pretty simple and it can easier job and can help you to save time. But if you prefer to draw like in more traditional way, as I do so just use also scholars said, I added to the color palette. Something like that. So now my second option end, but guys, I want to make our picture more saturated and in this way, I'm going to go and replicate our pain and, and you see now is pretty saturated. And I can lower SAT passage slightly enough travel marched layers together. So now as you see, our painting is very, very situated. Second options that I was talking about and because to the selection tool. And we start with shades under the neck here. And after that, you can press. But this time I will not do lead and hue saturation, brightness and loggers upright as increased situation. And after you see we have a gap between colors, a US blending tool and just blends it slightly like this. So now we have shading is pretty simple and it can help you to save time. So guys, you have to auctions as I told you about. So after that, you'll grab like you selected one year after you can press Add in R, you can select second year. Lexis. And next. Next, if your situation and brightness became lowers the pride that he can play this colors. Turned off post-election tool and blend the rest. And then after hue saturation and brightness increase situation. Knows I can at some pink color. Now as a last part, E is hair. And say, I'm gonna be a selection tool and keep grabbing and some shades. Here. Brightness, increase situation. Play this colors and access purple on enough to plan some sharp edges. Then went to highlight some areas. Percent hesitation and brightness. Now you can increase brightness. And then the sharp edges. Okay, this preteen. And next step is I'm going to change as a color of ours kitsch layer is here. This one is Q would like to keep it black. It might be. So guys who likes this black color, you can keep it that way for those who wants to change the edge. So what it would do, I will just duplicate one turned off, one black, black colored sketch. And next step, I want to change the color. Here. Now is way more better. It can actually go slower sound passivity and keep it situates all up to you. But I think we need to do something with this hybrid. And same. I wanted to do something with these eyes. I went to make some darker. And I've just said Cut and Paste in current and merge that together with rest. And have hair. And I think for the hair and eyebrows, I will just lower SAT passage is lightly. First option. And you see it's lighter. It's more like an watercolors tile. He can keep it like said, or you can just leave, sat with a black color.

Saying visit farmer to if you will, pull flower here, it's our leptin release, asa colors. So we need to create a transparent background. So what we gotta do it in this way.
